i (25f) have started dating someone for the first time in a long time (i previously havent had sex with someone since i was 17) and they’ve been very communicative in terms of kinks, what they like, asking me what i like and guiding me to be more communicative, which i previously wasn’t because of the big time gap in my sexual experiences. i’d told him that i like slapping (which i do), but have noticed that i have a lot of popped little blood vessels around my eyes after sex, and most recently, noticedproper bruising around my chin and near my eyebrow. i don’t particularly notice if this is too painful during sex, but having to sit with this after has been making me uncomfortable. how do i figure out if this is still something i like? how do i have a conversation about this? i fear my inexperience makes me really bad at communicating these things and i dont really know how to go forward. tia 🙂
